Pre Sales May Be Slowing. Yes? Nooooooooo!

Now this is just getting silly. Pali Research says sales of the Palm Pre are slowing. RBC’s Mike Abramsky says they aren’t and claims 325,000 to 375,000 have been sold to date, ahead of his expectations. Jesup and Lamont analyst Kevin Dede says the device is plagued by high exchange/return rates of potentially 40 percent. Abramsky says it’s more likely between two and three percent. Who’s right? Who cares?

D7 Video: AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson Onstage With Walt Mossberg

Walt Mossberg jumped into his discussion with Randall Stephenson by citing poll data showing that some folks might not be interested in buying an Apple iPhone because of AT&T. Stephenson notes that AT&T is improving network quality and reducing churn, and in an informal poll of the audience, a surprising number of D7 conference-goers indicate they’re satisfied with AT&T service.
